    Simply A Masterpiece

    By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

    Easily one of the funniest TV shows of all time. 'Clunesy' is just priceless as the Doc, and never has such a dry lifeless character been so funny.The rest of the cast are also seasoned performers and slot well into their characters, with the exception of the PC Penhale character who is just irritating and rarely funny. My only criticism of the show is that most of the actors sound like they are from Bristol - their Cornish accents are shocking - they'd just as well play the characters without an accent rather than insult the Cornish accent - although Ian McNeice has got it just about right for the Port Isaac area - :)

    I loved the series 1-5. It was so funny, so sunny and optimistic. So much humor. I was looking forward to the next season, and what a disappointment it was - as of a totally different person wrote the script and directed. And that was what happened. I tried to watch series 5, 6, 7, and nothing but the feelings of irritation, fear for the characters, amusement at not funny jokes came along. The show lost it all for me. For the last couple years I just couldn't watch this show until now. Now,I will carefully watch only seasons 1-5. Dominic Minghella and the original producers, cast director and actors were superb in my humble opinion.

    Spoilers.... I happened upon Doc Martin on Netflix and became a fan almost immediately. I then mentioned the show to my parents, who've watched it every day since. Next I introduced it to my husband, who watches very little TV, and he loves it. I even caught him laughing to himself the other day, and when I asked him what was funny, he said "I was just thinking about Doc Martin". It's a comedy first, a drama second. So don't take it so seriously. Doctor Martin Ellingham is a high powered London surgeon who leaves his prestigious position to work as a gp in Cornwall. Kind of Eliza Doolittle in reverse. It goes further than My Fair Lady though by showing what happens next....after the doctor and local teacher fall in love things get messy, and funny and sad. He's a dedicated super human md who seems to hate almost everyone, is hysterically grumpy and rude and yet despite this the health of the community is his calling. Add to that quirky towns folks, beautiful scenery, a lovely leading lady and medical mysteries. Martin Clunes will surprise you when he makes you laugh and cry, more than once. He's a superb actor and fantastic physical comedian. I was also impressed with Caroline Catzs abilities. In one particular scene she plays with her mother you can actually see her reverting from a grown woman to a little girl and back again just by the expressions on her face. Doc Martin was a wonderful surprise and I hope they will continue the series for years to come. Lots of possibilities for great story lines adding a child to the cast. My only criticism would be that, as well as the actors have aged, it's doubtful they'll be able to pull off the role as parents of an infant much longer. Hopefully little James will have aged a bit quicker by next season. After all Louisa was 37 when she was pregnant 7 or 8 years ago and the baby just turned 1 in the last season.

    Typical of so many TV series in this present age, it seems the producers, writers & actors are there to take the mickey out of the audience! 'Let's see how much nonsense we can pile into a programme & how much the infantile public lap it up, ho ho ho.' As with so many medical, police crime & other dramas, it bears no relation to real life. If this social misfit, hemophobic doctor were in the real world he would never have passed any one of the dozens of exams in order to qualify! Absurd, a hemophobic GP who is so anti-social, so rude to people. Weak scripts, weak acting, weak drama. One episode of the three I watched springs to mind. His girlfriend is having his baby. Whilst she is pregnant he decides to return to London. She is actually having the baby when he then decides to stay & be with her & baby! I rest my case!
